More about Avenues Recovery
Day to day that means admission medical assessments, vitals, medication dispense and logs, and pharmacy authorizations for people in drug and alcohol treatment, not a med-surg floor rhythm. Staff talk about flexible shifts, manageable caseloads, and a compassion-focused, family-like culture tied to the recovery mission. Benefits on the postings include 401K match, medical/dental/vision, employer-paid life and AD&D, EAP, FSA, generous PTO, and a long list of voluntary coverages. The organization states JCAHO and CARF accreditation and ASAM standards compliance. Norfolk itself sits a little under the national cost of living, with short average drives and neighborhoods from walkable Ghent to quieter Larchmont. One clear friction: some former employees say promotions lean toward friends of management or outside hires rather than people already on staff. If that tradeoff still fits how you want to practice, the Norfolk openings are the door in.
Community-focused addiction recovery care across a full continuum from detox through outpatient; employer cites compassion-centered teamwork and a shared recovery mission.
